Ken Pobo Re-Imagines Ernst and Carrington

Kenneth Pobo’s poems have
appeared in Indiana Review, Mudfish, The Cider Press Review, The
Fiddlehead, and Hawaii Review,
among literary journals. His most recent collection is Placemats,
published by Eastern Point Press. He teaches literature and creative writing
at Widener University in Chester, PA, and in 2007 received the Lindback Award for Distinguished Teaching. In these poems, Pobo
re-imagines the work of two towering figures in Surrealist painting, Max Ernst
and Leonora Carrington. The couple, who met in London in 1937, lived together in
France until separated by WWII.
